+.SH DESCRIPTION
+The
+.ZN XtGetSelectionValue
+function requests the value of the selection that has been converted to
+the target type.
+The specified callback will be called some time after
+.ZN XtGetSelectionValue
+is called;
+in fact, it may be called before or after
+.ZN XtGetSelectionValue
+returns.
+.LP
+The
+.ZN XtGetSelectionValues
+function is similar to
+.ZN XtGetSelectionValue
+except that it takes a list of target types and a list of client data
+and obtains the current value of the selection converted to each of the targets.
+The effect is as if each target were specified in a separate call to
+.ZN XtGetSelectionValue .
+The callback is called once with the corresponding client data for each target.
+.ZN XtGetSelectionValues
+does guarantee that all the conversions will use the same selection value
+because the ownership of the selection cannot change in the middle of the list,
+as would be when calling
+.ZN XtGetSelectionValue
+repeatedly.
